Austar IV isn't the planet it once was, and when Jakkin and Akki finally return to the dragon nursery, their homecoming arouses mixed emotions. Together they've survived the insurmountable, and now they can weather the brutal conditions of Dark After and communicate with the dragons they love. But with this knowledge comes responsibility. What they've learned about survival could transform the planet--or, if entrusted to the wrong hands, bring about its destruction. Akki's insistence that she return to the Rokk to finish her training and begin new experiments drives a chasm between her and Jakkin. Suddenly she finds herself in the midst of a political battle that could claim her life. Only Jakkin can save her. If only he could reach her. . . .

Select your format based upon: 1) how you want to read your book, and
2) compatibility with your reading tool. To learn more about using
Bookshare with your device, visit the "Using
Bookshare" page in the Help Center.

Here is an overview of the specialized formats that Bookshare
offers its members with links that go to the Help Center for more
information.

Bookshare Web
Reader - a customized reading tool for Bookshare members offering all
the features of DAISY with a single click of the "Read Now" link.

DAISY
(Digital Accessible Information System) - a digital book file format.
DAISY books from Bookshare are DAISY 3.0 text files that work with
just about every type of access technology that reads text. Books that
contain images will have the download option of ‘DAISY Text with
Images’.

MP3 (Mpeg audio
layer 3) - Provides audio only with no text. These books are created
with a text-to-speech engine and spoken by Kendra, a high quality
synthetic voice from Ivona. Any device that supports MP3 playback is
compatible.

DAISY Audio
- Similar to the Daisy 3.0 option above; however, this option uses MP3
files created with our text-to-speech engine that utilizes Ivona's
Kendra voice. This format will work with Daisy Audio compatible
players such as Victor Reader Stream and Read2Go.
